Process

Delightful sequence of technical conversations with engineers, managers, and company officers.

Included a whiteboard coding exercise.

Spoke with key engineers and potential managers who were able to give me detailed descriptions of possible projects that I might work on. A very exciting suite of technical opportunities was explained.

It was especially fun to explore the different languages involved in each of the software subsystems and the potential to utilize our favorites. It was amazing to see the kitchen stocked with fresh fruit, eggs, milk, and tons of more common fare.

It was wonderful to see the massive wall of letters from children who were inspired to write to ROBLOX! I was astounded to find two children's paperback novels written in a ROBLOX alternate history type world available for perusing in a waiting area.

Questions

Fun questions involving number theory and basic modular arithmetic, on top of a few more typical data structure questions. It was nice that they did not require perfect syntax in this phase; instead, they focused on the design, thought process, data structures, algorithms, and asymptotic complexity.
